Day 1

I felt exactly the same as you do now! As Hazel says,it's probably not much help to you now,but it really DOES get better.I am 16 months past my diagnosis date.I was 59 when I found out,and I had never been in a hospital for anything at all.No operations,no nothing!!!!!! I couldn't focus on anything either, couldn't read a book,not even a long article in a magazine! I found though,that the best thing for me in those early days,was to walk!!! It took my mind off things a bit,and it also helped to keep my body healthy( not only physically but emotionally). This network of ladies was my saviour as well,and whenever I felt upset or stressed,I would come on here for a chat!! Stay in touch and before you know it,things will be changing for the better.CheersxoxRobyn
